Step-by-step explanation:
2(x＋3)
2x＋6
devide each in 2
2x/2 and 6/2
2 and 2 go out
X=3
2x^2-8x-24=0
Divide the whole equation by 2.
x^2-4x-12=0
Complete the square
x^2-4x+4-16=0
(x-2)^2 -16=0
(x-2)^2=16
Take the square root of each side.
(x-2)=4 and (-(x-2))=4
x=6 and x=-2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is stated that a function rule takes an input, and converts it into an output, y, by decreasing twice the input by 4.
Let 'x' be the number
Decreasing twice the number 'x' by 4 = 2x-4
Now,
Given the input x = 5
As the output will decrease twice the input (x=5) by 4
Thus, the output = 2(5)-4 = 10-4 = 6
Therefore,
6 meters
72 = x+x+5x+5x
72 = 12x
6 = x
the shorter side is 6 meters
So, the area of the trapezoid is 287 cm².
